Some Ark fan hottakes from December about Enos...summary: good guy will go somewhere and do well

Thanks to Bo Nederlander for the link. Sounds like exactly the type of OC Harbaugh would want:
Backed by his pro-style offense that features a balanced attack, Enos has turned the Arkansas offense into a threat through the air and on the ground. Over his two seasons as OC, Arkansas is one of two FBS programs with 3,000-yard passer and 1,300-yard rusher in both 2015 and 2016. Even more impressive, the Razorbacks are the only program to accomplish the feat with a different quarterback and different running back in each of those seasons.
In his first season on The Hill, Enos helped Arkansas lead the SEC in scoring in conference games, averaging 34.4 points per conference game. The Razorbacks scored 50+ points four times over the final six regular season games, breaking the previous program single-season record of three set in 1910, 1916 and 2007.
The Razorback offense was wildly successful primarily due to the incredible balance between the passing and rushing attacks. Arkansas was the only school in the SEC and one of eight nationally to have both a 3,000-yard passer and 1,000-yard rusher during the regular season.

We actually have 3 spots; Smith (Safeties) left to be RIce DC and Greg Frey left for FSU and then the 10th assistant.

I don't think it says anywhere he will be the OC here, does it? Just describes him as a former Arkansas OC.
January 5th, 2018 at 2:49 PM ^
There is no indication in the articles about the hiring that he's going to be the OC

Sure, they sometimes don't fire them and they let them look while they look for their replacement, but who has ever actually hired the replacement and still not announced it? Of course you can announce it when you make the hire. You want to establish a new OC right away.
Also, I said "indication" not announcement. Why would we necessarily be hiring an OC not retained in a coaching staff and promote him to OC on a Harbaugh staff? He hires lots of former coaches and coordinators. There's no indication in the article that he's destined for a top level position

CMU Alum here, not crazy about this hire.
January 5th, 2018 at 2:51 PM ^
I wonder how his relationship with MSU will be now? I know the fans will disown him, but I wonder if Dantonio and Co. will despise him for coming to UM.

But I am OK if he is a position coach but I am not OK with him as a coordinator. His claim to fame is running my alma mater into the ground after successful years with Butch and Kelly.
Really believe that JH has other movs up his sleeve....the future is now!

I think you and I will get along just fine.
January 5th, 2018 at 3:01 PM ^
Guh.
If he's being hired for the OC, this is most definitively NOT a Don Brown-level hire.
Is this what UMBIG11 meant by "keep an open mind"?

That is all.
January 5th, 2018 at 4:18 PM ^

I wouldn't be surprised if Drevno is leaving, but I'm with you that I am not assuming that. Drevno is a good coach and he's an OL guy, I could totally see him staying too. Harbaugh could just feel we need changing the position coaches.
I'm not assuming Pep is gone, though I'd be more surprised if he stayed than Drevno. The NFL rumors seem a lot more prevalent
January 5th, 2018 at 4:08 PM ^
give the guy a chance. what we have is shit. i think anything is an improvement

I think he's a great pickup other than that he's a Spartan. I hate Spartans. I just do
January 5th, 2018 at 4:45 PM ^
Enos as the OC
Drevno as the OL/TE coach
Hamilton as excommunicado from the program.
I like it.
January 5th, 2018 at 4:49 PM ^
Enos as the OC - Not
Drevno as the OL/TE coach - Not
Hamilton gone - 50/50
Why all the hate on Hamilton anyway? It's not just you, I realize that. But I don't get all the hate. There's no reason to believe that he's the problem

Name a single positive thing you can give him credit for since being here.
The Colts were happy to get rid of him. He was terrible with the Browns. O'Korn's best game was before he got starter reps. Then with 2 weeks with starting QB practice reps he looks like shit against msu. Peters worst game of the year wasn't until he had a whole month to prepare as the starter with Pep and company. Speight, who was ok last year, completely regressed after one off-season with Pep. You could easily argue everything he touched turned to shit.
Pep is the passing game cooridnator and our passing game was the worst its been in years.

This is not the homerun I was hoping for

Good addition to the staff
All come to their sense eventually!

Go Blue!

I may sound dumb but I just want to read about the guy. Who is Anderson? First name? Where did he coah? Anything. Thanks! Keep doing you Umbig11
January 5th, 2018 at 6:11 PM ^
Kurt. An OL Coach.

I'd feel kinda weird if we take all the Arkansas staff that was let go. Not the warm and fuzzy kind of weird.
January 5th, 2018 at 8:13 PM ^
Looking at their track records as OL coaches, Anderson seems like a significant downgrade from Drevno. From Arkansas:
Pre-Anderson: 2014 - #28 rushing offense and 5.1 ypc - 14 sacks allowed
Pre-Anderson: 2015 - #33 rushing offense and 5.0 ypc - 14 sacks allowed
Anderson: 2016 - #72 rushing offense and 4.1 ypc - 27 sacks allowed
Anderson: 2017 - #70 rushing offense and 4.4 ypc - 35 sacks allowed
This is a hideous regression. I know recruiting probably plays a role, but they fell off a cliff when he took over the OL.
